Thank you Mjcmt that is some spot on good information on the 302.
Two tube amps for your consideration please
I am looking at two tube amps for purchase that will be for music only. Pre-pro will be a Denon 988 AVR with a Sony CD 200 CD changer in then pre out to tube amp. I have dedicated 1 of the channels on the AVR for this.
Speakers are B&W 805s.
For consideration is:
Jolida 502a 350.00
Yaqin VK-2100 300.00
Your thoughts are appreciated.
Signal path will be the CD via optical to the AVR (to take advantage of the superior Burr Brown DACs in the AVR) then pre-out to the tube amp then to the speakers.
Thanks

Oldtexasdog, how large is your room and how loud do you like to listen to music? Also, what type of music do you most listen to? That should give us an idea of how much power you actually need. Offhand, knowing nothing of your musical preferences and volume requirements, along with your $300-800 price limit, I suggest: 1) VTL ST-85 - here 2) Rogue Audio Atlas 3) Rogue Audio Magnum Eighty Eight 40 Or, if you can get by with less power(~35-40wpc) one of the many upgraded/modified classic Dynaco ST-70 amps in the ~$600 range |
